The FEC responded by saying it didn't have the jurisdiction to decide what was and wasn't a contribution, according to Stevens -- so he moved on to other federal agencies.

Stevens is now wading into new waters -- the wonders of federal bureaucracy. He says he mailed two complaints today to both the Office of Congressional Ethics and the franking commission that oversees the mail program (which, for what it's worth, already exonerated Mack once).

The complaints are similar to the one sent to the FEC, but this time, Stevens refers to the congressman as "the butt-nugget Mack." No word on whether the feds will respond to his prose in a similar fashion to the way Deerfield Beach did last year.
